Love is such a common topic for songwriters but rather than approach it from the perspective of someone in a relationship, I wanted to approach it from a distance. Where often in life things are out of reach and trying to attain them can do more harm than good. It is this tension that I explore in the song.
Verse
To Fall for you was something I had never planned
That we would end as only friends was plain to see
You had your other life before this all began
But still I hope that part of you belongs to me
Pre-Chorus
Just seeing the smile I bring to your face
Means as much as your embrace
Now that I know that you understand
I have achieved everything I can
Chorus
Some things in life are unattainable
No matter how hard I try
Some things in life are unattainable
It’s better that I say goodbye
Some things in life are unattainable
There’s always a reason why
Some things in life are unattainable
I laugh though I want to cry
Verse
I always knew you were in love with another
That there could never be room for me
I only hoped that I had something to offer
That made you cherish all the memories
Verse
We shared so little precious time together
Fleeting moments could not convey
All my affections the joy and the pleasure
Those special feelings will never fade
Chorus
Some things in life are unattainable
No matter how hard I try
Some things in life are unattainable
It’s better that I say goodbye
Some things in life are unattainable
There’s always a reason why
Some things in life are unattainable
I laugh though I want to cry
Verse
I believe that I will never find another
Who could ever truly touch me so
I hope your life is full of happiness forever
And that a part of me helped make it so
And now it’s time for me to let you go
